E-Commerce (Sale of Digital Content) Website Terms of Use Template

Website Terms of Use - E-Commerce Sale of Digital Content (B2C)

These E-Commerce Sale of Digital Content Website Terms of Use are designed for use by online retailers on e-commerce websites providing digital content to
consumers.

This document is designed for use with a counterpart set of terms of sale, available here. This template applies to the use of your website itself, leaving the terms
governing the sale of digital content to a separate document.

Please Note:
This template, together with the counterpart terms of sale, replaces the previous TR.WEB.TC.06 and TR.WEB.TC.07 templates, formerly known as ‘Information
Provider’ terms and conditions. Now referring to ‘digital content’, these terms remain applicable to websites providing information but can now also be
applied to a broad range of other digital content.

These Terms of Use are designed for acceptance through use. When a user visits your website, they are deemed to have accepted the terms of use. Optional
wording in this template also allows for the terms to be accepted as part of the sign-up process on your website.

Important information about the website operator is set out in these terms of use, including company registration details, trading address, and details of
any relevant regulatory bodies or associations. For some trades and professions, additional information may be required. Members of regulated professions
should include professional titles, links to professional rules and other important details. Such details are not included in this template and
professional advice should be sought by those working in regulated professions.

Intellectual property rights are protected by these website terms and conditions, not least copyright. Unlike many such provisions, however, those included
in this template are relatively generous to users. Primarily, this has been done to assist in realistic enforceability. While not allowing complete free
rein, therefore, the provisions protecting copyright and other IP do take an accommodating approach to modern internet use habits. Rather than attempting
to prevent users from copying material through draconian clauses in your terms and conditions, it may instead be preferable to use technical measures, such
as coding preventing right-clicks to save images or scripts designed to interfere with printscreen functions.

Website linking is another area benefitting from more open, pragmatic terms. Many terms and conditions prohibit so-called “deep-linking” (linking to
specific pages on a site, rather than its homepage). Others may allow users to only link from sites the content of which is under their full control. Deep
linking may or may not be permitted in this document by selecting the appropriate option. Prohibiting users from linking from sites they do not control is
not covered, not least given the value to website operators of having links to their sites spread around social media. Instead, users are restricted from
linking from sites that mainly comprise unsavoury or unlawful material.

Disclaimers and liability provisions in this template seek to protect website operators to the maximum extent deemed reasonable. It is important to ensure
that such provisions are not made excessively tough – particularly when dealing with consumer users – or they run the risk of being considered legally
unfair. Moreover, in this context, it important to note that such provisions relate only to the use of the website itself, not to the sale of digital
content.

Further key clauses address internet security, data protection, privacy and cookies (integrating separate policies into the terms and conditions by
reference), acceptable use of the website, and opting in and out of marketing communications.

Optional phrases / clauses are enclosed in square brackets. These should be read carefully and selected so as to be compatible with one another. Unused
options should be removed from the document.
